Before my wife died sheoften watched while I was making a mess in her kitchen doing my imitationof a bakery chef. She said that the Kona Inn Banana Bread should be renamedGarbage bread because I never stuck to the recipe and added all sorts ofthing that I found such as any kind of chopped nuts, lemon and orange zest,chopped apricots, chopped mango, coconut flakes and one time I even addedsome mincemeat that was left over after baking some mince pies. Perhaps theKona Inn should have taken me to court and forced me to stop making changesto their Banana Bread. Perhaps my use of their name for the resultingstrange flavored versions of their Banana bread had something to do withtheir going out of business some years ago.
